“I strongly support Vice President Harris’ campaign for President. I know she’s going to win and I was honored to be considered for this role. This just wasn’t the right time for North Carolina and for me to potentially be on a national ticket,” he explained about why he ended up declining.
He added, “As I’ve said from the beginning, she has an outstanding list of people from which to choose, and we’ll all work to make sure she wins.”
Others considered in contention are Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, and some others.
